**Heat of Combustion Calculation**

In this exercise, you are given the following problem:

"If the heat of combustion for a specific compound is –1120.0 kJ/mol and its molar mass is 98.67 g/mol, how many grams of this compound must you burn to release 872.10 kJ of heat?"

**Calculation Requirements:**

- **Heat of Combustion**: –1120.0 kJ/mol
- **Molar Mass**: 98.67 g/mol
- **Target Energy Release**: 872.10 kJ

**Solution Steps:**

1. **Determine the Number of Moles Needed**:
    - Use the equation: 
      \[
      \text{moles} = \frac{\text{Target Energy Release}}{\text{Heat of Combustion}}
      \]

2. **Calculate the Mass**:
    - Multiply the number of moles by the molar mass to find the mass required.

**Mass Required**:
\[ \text{mass} = \]
